Answer:

Light year

Explanation:

The distance between the stars is very large. The unit measure this distance should be very large. It is called light year.

One light year is defined as the distance traveled by the light in one year.

Speed of light is 3 x 10^8 m/s

Time taken is 1 year = 365 days  = 365 x 24 x 60 x 60 = 31536000 second

By using the formula

distance = speed x time

distance = 3 x 10^8  x 31536000 = 9.46 x 10^15 m

Thus , one light year is equal to 9.46 x 10^15 m.

A sound wave is passing by a student 250 times every second. What is the frequency of the sound wave?
inysia [295]
My answer i believe is simply 250 Hz, because sounds or vibrations travel in 1 cycle/second, meaning the number of cycles, in your case 250, divided by the time,1 second, will ultimately be 250 Hertz.  For every Cycle/second it will equal 1 Hz, so 250/1 = 250Hz
